    Everyone Al works with are geniuses in their own way. Truly lyricists. Earl Sweatshirt, MIKE, Wiki, Navy Blue, Vince Staples and the list goes on. Mach-Hommy too! Action Bronson is dope and hilarious. Another great match with Al.
    Honestly just listen to everything Alchemist produces and you'll be alright.

  • @IceKoldKilla
    @IceKoldKilla 9 месяцев назад +5

    Am I the only one that feel this in their soul? I can't describe it. The sound is enough to make me tear up. Like I know what the feeling is. Too similar to what I've felt a lot, all my life. All the pain and depression over the years. It's there in the soul of the song. No English required to understand the feeling. It goes beyond words. Their voices and tones. You just know.
    I'm sorry if I seem weird. No I'm not high. At least not yet. But sometimes I have these recurring feelings I don't see shared all the time. I felt like sharing just this one. Hopefully I'm not alone although that isn't too unfamiliar either.

    I took a bus from Paris back to Rotterdam and listened to this while half-asleep
    I've noticed that this instrumental is actually very remarkable
    if you listen closely with high-quality headphones, the beat elegantly evolves as it progresses towards conclusion
    the same melodies were swapped with organic instruments, complementing each other
    the beat sounded like a jazz band recorded it live.
